âFilming outdoors is a little different from filming indoors. Iâm not too sure about other peopleâs scenes, but many of our scenes will be on the hillside over there and in the forest. Do you see them? So, when the time comes, you have to be careful not to run around or youâll get separated.â
Jin Lan pointed into the distance and introduced the places to Xiao Bao.
Lu Mingjue also looked over and couldnât help but see her.
As an artiste, Jin Lan was very dull, but she also carried the label of a bimbo. Her appearance was very eye-catching. Even if one were to take a closer look at her, her appearance would stand up to the test.
When Lu Mingjue saw her face, his occupational disease acted up. She had never filmed a female lead role with such looks. What was her management company doing?
The more he thought about it, the more he could not take his eyes off Jin Lanâs face.
Jin Lan was focused on talking to Xiao Bao and did not pay attention to Lu Mingjueâs gaze. âThe accommodation here is a little shabby. Thereâs accommodation over there. Iâll be staying over there, but fortunately, we wonât be staying here for long.â
âWhat about me?â Xiao Bao asked.
âXiao Bao and I will stay in the car,â Lu Mingjue said when he came back to his senses.
âCanât Xiao Bao stay with me? Weâre both children. Itâs easier for us to stay together,â Liang Long said.
Lu Mingjue was stunned. âWhy are you following us?â
After saying that, he saw that Liang Kang was following behind the child. What the hell?!
Liang Long said righteously, âCanât I patrol my fatherâs businesses?â
Liang Kang spread his hands. âI go wherever the big shot goes. Do I have a choice?â
Jin Lan spread out her hands. âAlright, youâre all young masters. Iâll leave Xiao
Bao to you. Iâll go to my accommodation and unpack my things!â
She let go of Xiao Baoâs hand and handed him to Lu Mingjue before turning to leave.
Lu Mingjue looked at Liang Kang. âHow bad are the conditions of the accommodations?â
âTheyâre not that bad. Itâs just that thereâll be occasional cuts in water and electricity. There are also more mosquitoes here. After all, weâre in the mountains,â Liang Kang said. âIf you really feel sorry for Jin Lan, you can just get her to stay in the car. Oh, I forgot that she doesnât have a camper van. Well, she can stay with you. Anyway, as long as you donât make too much noise, Iâll just turn a blind eye.â
âWhat nonsense are you talking about?!â Lu Mingjue glared at Liang Kang.
Liang Kang covered his mouth. âOh, I really shouldnât say these things in front of children. Iâll be careful next time!â
Lu Mingjue could not be bothered with him. He turned around and left with Xiao Bao.
Liang Long was about to follow when Liang Kang grabbed him by the collar.
âWhat?â
âTake it easy. Wonât you be beaten to death if you follow her now? When pursuing someone, you have to make use of some skills and methods.â
Liang Long rolled his eyes at him. âThen why havenât you wooed Sister
Weiyang yet?â
Liang Kang: ââ¦Go ahead, then. Seeing you be beaten to death will ease the hatred in my heart.â
After unpacking, everyone went to the canteen to eat.
Jin Lan came out after changing into a long cotton dress. Her hair had also been washed and was half-dry. When she saw Xiao Bao, she reached out to greet him. âXiao Bao!â
âSister Jin Lan!â Xiao Bao liked her very much. He ran toward her, held her hand, and sat down with her.
Lu Mingjue and Liang Kang were both there.
The other staff and artistes were also sitting in their seats.
In the open-air kitchen not far away, the chef was sweating profusely.
âThe conditions are a little tough. Everyone, please make do,â Liang Kang said.
âThe chef has invited the villagers living nearby.â
âThe smell of the food is quite fragrant. The food made from firewood is indeed different,â Jin Lan said with a smile. Her nostrils flared. âThe food will definitely be delicious!â
âThen eat more later!â Liang Kang said as he rinsed the bowl with hot water. He handed the clean bowl to Jin Lan. âThis is for you.â
âThank you.â Jin Lan smiled and took it. She gave it to Xiao Bao first.
Liang Kang immediately handed another one to her.
Jin Lan was about to take it when Lu Mingjue reached out and snatched it from his hand. âGive it to me first.â
Jin Lan retracted her hand. Liang Kang could tell from his expression that he was jealous. Coincidentally, he had nothing to do, so he had some playful thoughts and snatched it from Lu Mingjue. âI specially cleaned this for Jin Lan.
How can I give it to you? Iâll give you another one.â
Hearing his words, Lu Mingjue frowned slightly. Specially?
He didnât let go. âItâs just a bowl. Theyâre all the same. Is there a difference?â
âSince theyâre all the same, why do you insist on taking this one?â Liang Kang snatched it away forcefully. âJin Lan, you take it first.â
Jin Lan did not want to offend Lu Mingjue. After taking it, she handed it to Lu Mingjue. âMr. Lu⦠Mingjue, here.â
âI think we shouldâ¦â Liang Kang was about to snatch it back when the village chef came over with a big pot of food. âMake way. Be careful not to scald yourself. â
Liang Kang could only give up.
The big pot of food was cooked by firewood and was very fragrant. Even Liang Long, who was picky about food, filled a big bowl of rice.
After taking a bite, he immediately picked up some food for Xiao Bao.
He had always been this enthusiastic. Xiao Bao was used to it. He would eat whatever Liang Long gave him. However, it was strange. Xiao Bao realized that the food he got him were all things that he liked to eat, so he buried his head in his food and ate whatever there was.
Lu Mingjue was curious. âMr. Kang, where did your nephew take etiquette lessons?â
What he didnât say was that he had never seen Liang Kang so obedient and polite before. If it were before, itâd be amazing enough that he didnât require anyone to serve him.
Liang Kang held back his laughter and did not expose the truth. He said vaguely, âHeâs alright. Maybe heâs grown up.â
Lu Mingjue looked at him suspiciously, then at Liang Kang.
Forget it. Nothing big would happen anyway.
He had just retracted his gaze when Liang Kang, who wanted to see the world in chaos, picked up a piece of chicken for Jin Lan. âTry this chicken. It smells much better than the chicken in the city.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThank you, Mr. Kang.â Jin Lan smiled politely.
Lu Mingjue glanced at Liang Kang and realized that he was smiling maliciously. He then glanced at Jin Lan and saw that she was happy over the gesture.
Did they still remember that Jin Lan was his girlfriend? Ahem, although it was only in name.
âThe beans are also delicious. I heard that the chef planted them himself,â Liang Kang said. âAnd this pumpkin was also planted by the chef in the corners of the fields. Itâs very sweet.â
âMr. Kang, you should eat too. I canât eat too much.â Jin Lan was a little embarrassed. Liang Kangâs sudden enthusiasm made her not know how to respond.
âYou shouldnât lose weight. Youâre already quite thin. Iâve seen your scenes. Youâre very photogenic. Donât worry,â Liang Kang comforted her..
